Trallero who has promptly so many times discussed with MSB related topics to this work. MSB thanks a stay at the International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP), where he had the great opportunity to meet and discuss some of the ideas presented in this work with H. Cerdeira and R. Ramaswamy. MSB also thanks K. Josić for having asked what would happen if the transversal conditional Lyapunovs were larger than the one associated with the synchronization manifold and T. Nishikawa for having asked what would happen if s in Eq. (12) (for ρ = 0) is positive. MSB also thanks R. Köberle and C. Grebogi for illuminating discussions concerning the topics discussed in Sec. Results. Finally, we would like to express our gratitude to L. Pecora, for insisting in presenting a more rigorous argument concerning the calculation of the conditional exponents.11317827engQ ScienceQJournal article10.1371/journal.pone.0003479310
